Her Heart Her Terms (Lily and Xavier)

Chapter 14
Firstly, Xavier didn't know that his wife of two years could play the piano.
He bet on her, and he lost.
Secondly, at the Fulton Manor, he just wanted to have sex with her nothing more.
As for Sarah, the woman who had shattered her marriage, Lily hadn't yet confronted her directly.
The first time was when Sarah was called "Mrs. Fulton" in front of her.
The second time was when Lily watched as Sarah packed Xavier's personal clothes, taking her black stockings and lace bra from his bed.
In the face of these events, the repeated rejections for her interview seemed insignificant.
The thought of divorce still caused her pain, but she knew she had to take this path.
Two years of marriage couldn't just be erased, but long-term suffering was worse than short-term pain.
She understood all the reasoning, yet she couldn't let go, couldn't walk away as easily as Maryanne had suggested. She could not put on makeup, smile, and walk out of the courthouse with the divorce certificate. Lily hadn't slept the entire night. In the morning, she applied light makeup to cover her exhaustion and took her ID before heading out.
She arrived at the courthouse two hours early. It was still closed, but a young couple was waiting outside, excited and smiling as they chatted, their faces glowing with happiness.
Comparing herself to them, Lily felt lifeless and empty.
The cool autumn morning wrapped around her as two thick trees stood outside the office.
Their leaves, yellowing and falling, drifted to the ground-one landed on her shoulder, the other beside her white flats.
She stared blankly at the young couple, memories flooding back.
She remembered the day she had married Xavier how she had carefully prepared. She wore a beautiful gown, and her long hair was tied in a bun.
The marriage certificate had come so suddenly, and she hadn't been prepared. She wasn't sure if she could wear makeup for the photo, so she went without it.
The photo on her marriage certificate was of a fresh-faced, happy version of herself, leaning slightly toward Xavier.

Her face radiated happiness, something that could be felt even through the camera lens.
For a long time, she had thought that the marriage certificate photo wasn't flattering. It was not ugly, but it was not her best look either.
